Human life has various time periods in which they are waiting for something special to happen. And today in this Q card I am describing a time when I was waiting for my senior secondary education result. I vividly remember when 3 years ago I was waiting for it at my home during my summer As I was free from classes, I was having plenty of time and instead of relaxing, I was checking up my phone daily and I was refreshing the university’s website. And at that time I felt that the time was passing like a snail’s space. This movement was really special for me because my results were like a turning point for my whole life. As my admission in the course of next year was dependent on this. And I was really very hopeful for my results because not only I have invested so many time in that but also I did great efforts throughout the year. In addition to this, my parents were also hoping so much for me. So I was a bit under pressure. I was feeling that I was on pins and needles because at one time I was really very excited and hopeful for the best possible outcomes but on the other hand I was anxious and thinking about the worst outcome that would happen. But after the results were released I got passed with flying colors. my tension fluid away and all in all this was a time when I was waiting something for special for happen.

Human life has various time periods in which we are waiting for something special to happen. Today, in this Q card, I am describing a time when I was waiting for my senior secondary education result. I vividly remember that three years ago, I was waiting for it at home during my summer. As I was free from classes, I had plenty of time, and instead of relaxing, I was checking my phone daily and refreshing the university's website. At that time, I felt that time was passing like a snail's pace. This moment was really special for me because my results were a turning point for my whole life, as my admission in the course for the next year depended on this. I was very hopeful for my results because not only had I invested so much time in that, but I also made great efforts throughout the year. In addition to this, my parents were also hoping a lot for me, so I was a bit under pressure. I felt that I was on pins and needles because, on one hand, I was really excited and hopeful for the best possible outcomes, but on the other hand, I was anxious and thinking about the worst outcome that could happen. After the results were released, I passed with flying colors. My tension floated away, and all in all, this was a time when I was waiting for something special to happen.
